Cum sero factum esset

Pierre La Fage's motet, Cum sero factum esset, is written for SAATB voices in Latin. This sacred work sets a passage from the Gospel of John which recounts Jesus appearing to his disciples behind locked doors after his resurrection, bringing them peace. The text, describing this moment of divine reassurance and revelation, is imbued with a profound sense of calm and wonder. La Fage's setting uses the forces available to create a rich and resonant texture, suitable for a chapel or concert hall where the sacred message of the text can be fully conveyed. The motet explores the solemnity and quiet joy of this pivotal biblical event through its carefully crafted vocal lines.
